Renault Espace Rt (1993)
1993 Renault Espace Rt
CarHunch is tracking 355 1993 Renault Espace Rt vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1993 Renault Espace RT has a 0% first-time pass rate across 355 vehicles tested—a stark contrast to the UK average of 80%—which means every single example that came through MOT testing failed on its first attempt. There are no recorded dangerous defects in the dataset, which is the one bright spot, but the complete absence of passes suggests these 30-year-old MPVs are in genuinely poor mechanical condition by the time they reach the test bay.
With zero average failures and advisories recorded, the data appears incomplete or these vehicles may have been retested after repairs, but the 50-point Carhunch score reflects the reality: a 1993 Espace of this age is fundamentally unreliable as a used purchase. If you're considering one, budget heavily for immediate remedial work and expect ongoing repair costs; this model simply does not age well.
We have 355 1993 Renault Espace Rt vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1993 Renault Espace Rt
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
